CELL CYCLE POWERPOINT NOTES
Refresher on DNA
______ is the master molecule of the cell. DNA is located __________________________
of nearly every cell.
___________ are sections of DNA that are typically about __________________________
__________. Genes are the directions for making a _______________________________
________________________ for the cell.
__________________________ are ___________________________________________
that contain long sections of _________ with hundreds of ____________. Chromosomes
can only be seen ___________________________________________________________.
During the other phases of the cell’s life, the DNA _______________________
_________________________ and exists as _____________________ which
is not visible with a light microscope.
Human cells each have _____ chromosomes.
Name:_____________________
The Cell Cycle
The adult human body contains an estimated ________________
cells. Therefore, we are considered to be ___________________
organisms.
DNA is extremely important! DNA molecules are needed to store the
directions on ___________________________________________
and to tell those new cells _________________________________
_________________________________. However, every cell in the
body has identical DNA.
If every cell has ______________________, why don’t all of the cells look and act the same?
Not all of the DNA is used. ___________________________________________________
___________________________________________________.
This process of creating different cells with identical DNA is called _____________________.
Name:_____________________
So when, and how does a cell differentiate? The process begins with the __________
___________________.
Recall that all of us started out as _________________, a combination of egg and sperm.
During development, cells first ______________ and later begin to _________________
____________________________________________.
As we develop, our cells go through a cycle of events. The basic cell cycle looks like this:
M = _____________ ( _________________________ ) or sometimes
_______________ (making of gametes/sex cells).
G1 = __________ During this phase cells are not resting! They are busy
making proteins, breaking down toxic molecules, and using energy.
S = _____________________________________________. During this
phase the cell must make an extra copy of DNA to prepare for cell division.
G2 = ___________ During this phase cells are again not resting! They are
busy preparing for cell division.
Name:_____________________
At first, cells go through the cell cycle rapidly and ________________________________
_______________________, but at some point in development the cells _____________
_________________ and begin to differentiate into different types of cells. (In other words,
they remain in the _________________.)
Some cells in the human body ______________________________________________.
Our hair follicles, skin, and the lining of our digestive tract are examples of cells that
constantly divide. These cells are __________________________ and mainly serve as
barriers or boundaries.
Some cells ______________________________________________________________.
Once they differentiate, they can no longer go back to this cycle. Muscle cells and cells of the
central nervous system ___________________________________________ once they are
destroyed because of this.
Some cells remain in the G1 phase ______________________________________. They
can regain their ability to ____________________________________________________
___________________________________, but will then go back into a mode of not dividing.
______________: a simplified explanation of cancer cells is that these are cells that have
gone into a ___________________________________________________. Cells normally
have mechanisms _____________________ this from happening, but if a number of these
preventative measures fail, cells can begin to multiply uncontrollably. Cancer cells do not
have time to ________________________. They look different, do not function normally,
and eventually ________________________________________________________ that
surround them. Cancer cells have a _______________________ that’s gone bad!
There are 5 recognizable phases of the cell:
I = ___________________
P = _________________
M = _________________
A = _________________
T = _________________
_________
Interphase includes the _____________________________
cell cycle phases.
Cells spend ______________________________ in
interphase. The only time that a cell can be seen in one of the
other 4 phases is when the cell is in the process of dividing.
Name:_____________________
Mitosis is paired with ____________________________:


Mitosis refers to the process when the _________________ ___________________.
Cell division often refers to the process when the remainder of the cell
__________________ _____________, but this term can be used more generally as
well.
Mitosis includes: ___________________________________________________________
___________________________.
